These pictures are from our archives, from our Love Your Local feature which ran for more than a decade to highlight the valuable role that pubs play in our society – as social focal points and community hubs that go far beyond just being a place to drink beer.
Some landlords have gone – and sadly, so have some of the pubs. But take a look back in time and see how many familiar faces you recognise.
